Ken I think your the one thats missing the point.if these radio companirs,apps were not in the industry(which you invited them into) there would not be any long lines of taxis on the ranks.people who wanted a taxi would walk to the rank,or hail in the street,and this would eliminate any need for these middle men
If the Apps and radio companies were not here then the queues on the ranks would be even longer !
Secondly I didn't invite anyone except myself in to this industry.
And Thirdly and we have had this out before people will not leave their home (often in the rain) to hail a cab on the street.
I tried hailing a cab off the street a few months back going in to town to collect me Joe from the Auto-electrician, well dressed as I thought, Shirt with a collar, pants, shoes (not runners) and obviousely sober as going to work, no food, drink or ciggie in hand and Several cabs all with their Roof-light's On all whizzed by me.
These days when I want a cab I use the middle man MyTaxi, I don't care if it costs an extra few quid, I just want a Taxi and know/see where it is rather than standing like a fool on the side of the road watching empty Taxies passing me by.
